The premier showing of the Tamil film Anbirkku Alavillai was drenched as Chennai received rain for the first time in 6 months. The flooding kept all but the most serious away – there were 70 attendees to this first-ever film that advocates for professional marriage counseling for troubled couples.

Out of the 70 attendees, 34 turned in responses.

A senior pastor of a large church in Chennai said that the film “had a heart for family life on Godly love” and “the film is needed greatly”.

Two Hindu counselors attended and both wanted to use the film in their marriage counseling practice. One wrote, “The film has good communication of death, love and family counseling.”

23 out of 34 wrote that the storyline and script was Very Good or Good

21 of the 34 responders believe that the songs (integral to any Indian film) were Good or Very Good and

24 of 34 responders wrote that Anbirkku Alavillai supports and endorses marriage counseling!

The next step is to finalize censor formalities and find a theatrical distributor. Because the film has no cheap jokes and Hindu temples the commercial distributors do not wish to take risks. The solution is to “four wall” theatres and pre-sell tickets. Both of these options are expensive.

As I write, we are working on the sub-titles and a New York film festival has already agreed to enter the film. In addition, the DVD version will have the film, a CD on marriage resources and the audio CD. In addition, distributors are being approached for Tamil TV/DVD distribution in Malaysia/Singapore and Europe.

The producers of Anbirkku Alavillai (Unlimited Love) are offering a great opportunity to preview their film on June 1st from 3:30-9:30pm in Chennai at the AVM Preview Theatre, No 7, Arcot Road, Vadapalani, Chennai – 600026

Anbirkku Alavillai (Unlimited Love) is a dynamic Indian story about love and healing marriages produced in partnership in South India. This film offers a solution to heal the thousands of “dry” marriages in India. Like the western world, divorce is a significant problem and most couples have no counseling resources.

This timely film stars Johnny Lever, Sumeet Pathak, Neetu, P Choudary and the compelling singing of Srivinas, Krish and others. No expense was spared as the writer/producers, Jim Sanjay and Dan Henrich wanted a story that would bring hope to tens of thousands of marriages in India and the world.

Anbirkku Alavillai (Unlimited Love) is a love story about Vijay and Sneha who fall in love without ever formally meeting and want to get married. Johnny Bhai (Johnny Lever) is an amusing older married man with a heart of gold. Vijay (Sumeet Pathak) is a young man who is in love with Sneha (Neetu P Chaudhury). Vijay and Sneha get married against the advice of both Dr Sheetal (a qualified family therapist) and Johnny Bhai and immediately begins to realize that the person they thought was perfect had flaws!

Conflicts start invading their daily life. Vijay goes to Johnny Bhai but doesn’t like his advice.

What Vijay wants is sympathy and comfort he gets sage advice from this experienced married man. Sneha seeks counsel with Dr Sheetal who advises her that problems of this type are to be expected. After all, Vijay does not beat her or go out with other women – he simply ignores her and argues! Sneha should do one good thing for her husband each day for a week without expecting anything back. Sneha takes her advice and starts a one-week experiment. She asks Vijay to call his parents for dinner and she will cook for them. Vijay is surprised and happy with this offer. Of course, the dinner with Vijay’s parents is a disaster but the experience brings the young couple closer together.

This love story takes an interesting turn when Vijay’s wealthy and beautiful boss, Jyothi (Mansi Lal) tries to seduce him. What happens next is something that will take Vijay to a point of no return…
